Not forgetting Harri-et

Last post we introduced you to Harry, Barry & Larry, but mustn’t forget Harriet – the tunnel that connects Harry to the van!

Like the pods she zips in, but she also attaches to the van’s C rail. We bought an additional driveway kit, a joining strip between Harriet & the van, so she can be unattached enabling Nessie the van to go off out for the day, without having to pack everything away.

The driveaway is a little bit fiddly, but hopefully with practise we’ll get the hang of it!

Harry, Larry & Barry

The sad demise of Gary (the gazebo) coincided with the imminent arrival of Vanessa so it seemed sensible to replace him with something that could also be used as a van awning. With a bit of research we settled on just the thing – a dometic hub.

When we tried it out back in May some of you helped suggest names for the new addition to our camping family. And after some consideration we settled on suggestion of Harry the Hub. Why? Well, Harry has two pods (or techically annexes) which have been named Barry & Larry!

The pods just zip onto the central hub/gazebo meaning you can have whatever arrangement you prefer, including the option of a wall/door/window. On this occasion, which was the first van trip with both goats, both Barry the Bedroom & Larry the Lavatory were in use!!

The hub is 2.5 m square, so Barry is plenty big enough for even the tall goat to sleep comfortably in. The pod roof slopes quite steeply so we weren’t sure Larry was going to be tall enough to work as a bathroom, but it worked out fine.

With Harry, Barry & Larry, the Nessie set-up goes from petite to spacious! We are looking forward to more trips to try them out!
